💫 B. About this ritual

The Power of Focus

From an esoteric perspective, focus is a spiritual force. It is what enables mental images to manifest as physical realities.

Without a clear mental image and the ability to focus on that image, energy becomes scattered and our ideas and intentions remain unfulfilled.

When your mind is scattered you lose focus and the ability to focus. Pulled in too many directions it becomes difficult to create what you are seeking, let alone act on it with focused clarity, certainty and power.

In astromagick, the ability to focus creates a magickal current. The more intense, sharpened and more sustained the focus and the sustaining of that focus in the ritual practitioner, the more swiftly and precisely the magickal intent can move down through the inner planes into physical manifestation.

Using Focus to Manifest Your Desire

Have you ever called something into manifestation, only to find that it arrived… but not quite how you imagined? Or it came with unexpected issues or consequences? This is often a reflection of undefined mental imagery and lack of sustained focus.

The sharper and more intense your focus and intent, the more quickly will you manifest what it is you desire.

A clear, steady focus and intent is a magickal skill and like all skills it can be developed. It is a skill that will enable you to bring your soul’s desires to life with greater precision and ease.

Invoke Cosmic Forces to Reclaim Your Focus

⚗️ Astromagick is an ancient sacred art that uses ritual and powerful magickal formulations and correspondences to harness the powers of the cosmos and direct them for positive change, transformation and spiritual evolution.

⚗️ With Porta Alchémica® Astromagick formulations you have the powers of the cosmos right in your hands to dynamically create changes you desire. 

This Focus Ritual is created by Franchelle Ofsoské-Wyber to give you the means to develop the magickal power of focus. With this Astromagick Ritual you will:

🔺 Invoke the power of Mercury, the planetary ally of clear perception, focus and conscious awareness. Mercury empowers you to move beyond overwhelm and distractions and develop the power of focus.

🔺 Call on the light, adaptable energy of Gemini, the cosmic synchroniser of dualities, to bring cohesion to scattered thoughts and help you stay focused on your intent.

🔺 Direct these energies into the 3rd House, the mansion of life that governs your mind and everyday interactions.

Together, these forces support you to develop the power of mind to hold your intent in focus. 

🌙 C. Magickal timing

Magickal Timing

You can conduct this ritual any time you choose.

Conducting it at specific magickally potent times will amplify its magickal power.

Magickal Timing Options

🗓️ Day of the Week: Wednesday (Ruled by Mercury)

  • Ideal day for rituals of clarity, focus and communication. A powerful time to attune your mind to higher intelligence and direct your intent with more precision. This is also a supportive day for all things related to the mind, mental pursuits and communication — such as study, writing, teaching, exams and negotiations.

🌑 Moon Phase:

  • New Moon: A powerful time to clear mental clutter, set fresh intentions. Each new moon marks a new opportunity to call your awareness home and focus on what matters to the soul.
  • Full Moon: A potent time to illuminate distractions and bring subconscious thought patterns into conscious awareness for release or redirection.

♊️ Astrological Alignments:

  • When the Moon is in Gemini – Supports inner clarity. A powerful time to mentally reset and bring order to your mind.
  • When the Sun is in Gemini – Empowers clear thinking, communication and expression through words (written or spoken). 
  • When Mercury is retrograde – A potent time for reflection, recalibration and realignment of mental patterns. Ideal for refining how you communicate and how you use your mind.

Frequently Asked Questions

Ideally, you can follow the recommended daily practice for 28 days, but feel free to adapt the frequency to your schedule. Some people may choose to perform Focus Ritual every Wednesday (Mercury’s day) or during auspicious Moon phases. Regular Focus Ritual practice helps build momentum and deepen your connection to the energies involved.

Magickal work often unfolds in subtle ways and divine timing plays a significant role. Keep your heart and mind open to synchronicities. Consistency is key – ongoing practice can yield more profound, lasting shifts in your energetic field and attract deeper love connections.

Yes, you can. In fact, many of our ritual practitioners have an established daily practice of conducting multiple Astromagick rituals. There is no limit to how many rituals you can perform in a single session.

If, for example, you wish to call in love, attract wealth and prosperity, and contribute to global healing by performing a Protect the Forests or Protect the Bees ritual, you can conduct them one after another. You may use a single charcoal tablet and simply continue through each ritual until you have completed your final working for the day.

Conducting four or five rituals in this way often takes only 10–15 minutes and is a very efficient and effective way to ‘pack’ more magick into your day.

You are a multidimensional, multifaceted spiritual being. It is natural to wish to manifest or transform more than one area of your life. By consciously working with different Astromagick rituals in succession, you honour the fullness of your spiritual intent and your sacred role as a co-creator in the great unfolding of life.

Astromagick rituals created by Franchelle Ofsoské-Wyber are the ancient art of blending ancient earth wisdom traditions, astrological correspondences and magickal formulations with the transformative power of ritual to create profound personal transformation. 

Astromagick works with the language of the stars – the language your soul knows, understands and loves. 

Astromagick ritual is a dynamic and active process of working with the cosmic forces that puts you into the driver’s seat in your life. It enables you to be an active creator of your life and your future.

Porta Alchémica® astromagick formulations quite literally put the powers of creation into your hands so you can create manifestations and transformations you desire in your life. 

Created by award-winning vibrational medicine specialist, Franchelle Ofsoské-Wyber, each Porta Alchémica® astromagick formulation is an alchemical gateway carefully attuned to the energy of planets, zodiac signs and the elements.
